But these events could have happened in a successive series of events which ultimately designated Saul as king. He was considered to be an impressive young man who was taller and probably more handsome than any of his fellow countrymen.

Saul apparently had the physical and social characteristics that people look for in rulers 1 Samuel Once Saul had become king, he began to win a string of military victories. He defeated the Philistines who were subjecting the Israelites right before his reign 1 Samuel Saul ruled well for many years but ran into problems when he went to war against the Amalekites. God had told Samuel to give Saul specific instructions that he was expected to obey to the letter.

Saul then spent the rest of his days being tormented by an evil spirit and tried to kill David, who destined to take his throne. God allowed Samuel to return to let Saul know that he was going to die the next day 1 Samuel , and he did. And King Saul then knew who was the real mother of the baby. I am trying to find this passage in my bible, can someone help? Please, Thank You. That story is about king solomon not saul and the the story is found inthe book of kings 1.

The third version links Saul's selection to his rescue of the town of Jabesh-Gilead from besieging Ammonites. For some , the third story is the most believable. Having military ability could have helped Saul build power , and would explain his later successes fighting the Philistines. The small kingdom that Saul ruled likely included Mt. Ephraim, Benjamin and Gilead. The time that Saul served as king of Israel is generally approximated as about 20 years, circa to BCE.

However, the Hebrew text of the Bible reads that Saul became king at the age of 1 and ruled for two years, which is obviously unlikely. Some early Greek translations of the Bible state that Saul took power when he was 30 years old.

Saul was initially succeeded by his youngest and only surviving son, Ishbaal also written as Ishba'al and also called Ishbosheth. After Ishbaal was killed, David took control of his kingdom.

Though the Bible states that during Saul's reign he demonstrated shortcomings like extreme jealousy of David, as the first king of Israel, Saul succeeded in bringing different tribes into a closer association and achieved several victories over Israel's enemies. In addition, the united monarchy that Saul established was subsequently ruled by the lauded leaders David and Solomon. Samuel decreed that Saul no longer had God's favor and anointed David as the next king.

There are different stories about Saul and David's early relationship. He declared to those that opposed him that their blood should be upon their own heads, and he was free from all responsibility in their case, and would now turn to the Gentiles.

So after this Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed with all his house, and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized Acts The Lord appeared to Paul in a vision, and said to him by way of encouragement that He was with him and no one should hurt him, for He had many people in the city Acts He continued in Corinth a year and six months Acts While at Corinth Paul was accused by the Jews before Gallio, but Gallio drove them from the judgment seat, declaring he would not be judge of such matters Acts He left Corinth, taking with him Priscilla and Aquila.

He went to Ephesus, where he reasoned with the Jews in the synagogue, and from there to Antioch, and so ended his second missionary journey Acts His Third Missionary Journey. When he came to Ephesus, he found certain disciples whom he asked if they had received the Holy Spirit since they believed.

They answered that they did not know whether there was any Holy Spirit. He inquired of them unto what they were baptized. They said unto John's baptism. He told them that John baptized unto repentance, saying they should believe on Him who should come after him, that is, on Christ. When they heard this they were then baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus, and Paul laid his hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit, and spoke with tongues and prophesied Acts He remained three years in Ephesus, during which time he preached the gospel so all those who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both of Jews and Greeks, and God worked special miracles by his hand Acts ; Acts Some vagabond Jews attempted to exorcise evil spirits by the use of the name Jesus, using as a formula the words, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth" Acts Seven sons of Sceva, a chief priest, did this, and the evil spirit replied that he knew Jesus and Paul, and demanded who they were.

The man then actuated by the spirit within, violently assaulted them, and they escaped out of the house naked and wounded, and by this incident the name of Jesus was glorified Acts Many people believed and showed their faith by burning the books containing the principles of their magic to the value of fifty thousand pieces of silver Acts After this Paul proposed to go to Jerusalem and then to Rome.

A silversmith by the name of Demetrius, who made shrines for Diana, stirred up opposition against Paul until the entire city was in a state of confusion. The excited populace caught Gaius and Aristarchus, the companions of Paul from Macedonia, and rushed with them into the theatre, and continued to cry, some one thing and some another. They drew Alexander out of the multitude, who attempted to make a defense, but when they discovered that he was a Jew, they all cried and continued to cry for two houses, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians.

After the uproar, Paul called the disciples, embraced them, and departed to go into Macedonia, continuously exhorting the people Acts Acts He went into Greece, where he remained three months, and he was about to return into Syria, the Jews laid wait for him, and he proposed to go through Macedonia.

From Philippi he went to Troas, where he remained seven days. On the first day of the week they met with the disciples to break bread, and he preached to them, continuing his speech until midnight. A young man by the name of Eutychus, who had fallen into a deep sleep, fell down from the third loft and was taken up dead. Paul descended and restored him to life Acts The company sailed to Assos, where they took Paul on board.

Paul sent from Miletus for the elders of the church at Ephesus, and after an instructive and pathetic address, he kneeled down and prayed with them all, and then affectionately bade them farewell Acts They next went to Ptolemais, and from there to Caesarea, where they were entertained by Philip the evangelist Acts Here a prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judea, who, binding his hands and feet with Paul's girdle, predicted that the Jews at Jerusalem would so bind the owner and deliver him to the Gentiles, and his friends tried to persuade him not to go up to Jerusalem.

He replied to all their entreaties that he was not only ready to be bound at Jerusalem, but also to die for the name of the Lord Jesus, and they then ceased to persuade him Acts They went from Caesarea to Jerusalem, and were gladly received by the brethren, to whom Paul gave an account of his work among the Gentiles, after which, at the suggestion of his friends, he entered into the temple in performance of a vow, where the Jews laid hands on him and drew out to kill him, but he was rescued by a band of soldiers and the chief captain Acts After this, as a prisoner, he passed through various experiences, and was finally sent to Rome Acts ; 2 Corinthians Saul could be impulsive, acting unwisely.

His jealousy of David drove him to madness and a thirst for revenge. More than once, King Saul disobeyed God's instructions, thinking he knew better. God wants us to depend on him. When we do not and rely instead on our own strength and wisdom, we open ourselves to disaster. God also wants us to go to him for our sense of worth. Saul enjoyed his popularity with the people, forgetting he had been appointed king by God.

Saul's first allegiance was to God, as is ours. We should not forget, as Saul did, that we are all servants of God first. Saul's jealousy of David blinded Saul to what God had already given him. When we compare ourselves with others, we become confused.

We want what they have instead of using what God has equipped us with for our own specific mission. We can stray from God and try to get what we want on our own.

Life with God has direction and purpose. Life without God is meaningless. God expects total obedience, not partial obedience with excuses. When God ordered Saul to completely destroy the Amalekites, including their livestock, Saul spared their king and some of the choice animals. Saul then lied to Samuel, saying the livestock would be used for a sacrifice.

Saul thought he knew better than God. That is sin, and it always has adverse consequences. Saul's story can be found in 1 Samuel and Acts Daughters - Merab, Michal.






















As such, there is an option to turn it off in the settings, if you so choose. It may come as a shock now, but I never imagined doing this many ports of RCR when the project started. As such, it was originally designed for just one single resolution and aspect ratio.

Over time, more were added, and it was tuned to fit the each platform, one by one. However, it was about time that I just went ahead and rebuilt that part of the engine to operate much more dynamically. With the new system, the game now automatically adjusts to natively support a much wider range of resolutions and aspect ratios. These improvements mean that the HUD can now extend to the screen edge unless overscan is required , and ultrawide monitors will have an option to play without bars.

There are more improvements here than I can even remember now it had to be wrapped up in time for Wii manufacturing, last year. The vehicle spawning's been improved, so roads will feel more lively. The swimming controls are tighter. There are even some platform specific tweaks.

The 3DS update will bring much faster game saving, and improves in-game load times too especially when starting arcade challenges. The upcoming iOS update will finally add native support for the iPhone X displays. This was actually much more work than you might think which is why it took so long , but it sure does look great now filling the whole screen! I've been busy! If you have automatic updates enabled, just launch the game and you should be good to go.

Brodeur played 39 games to Schneider's 45, but the younger Schneider clearly became head coach Peter DeBoer's preferred netminder. With a 1. Schneider himself has voiced his desire to play more as well and has requested to play the vast majority of the games next season, according to Rich Chere of NJ. Some interpreted that as a case of Schneider making demands and trying to facilitate Brodeur's departure, but he insisted that isn't the case, per Tom Gulitti of The Record :.

People said I was demanding this or that. It has nothing to do with that. There have been no demands. I think just personally for me I would like the opportunity to be a starting goalie—however many games that may be, however you define a starting goalie. I would just like that opportunity. I think I've at least earned a look and if they agree then we'll go from there. It's something I would like to be able to do at some point.

While the year-old Schneider is clearly ready to take the reins, he has the utmost respect for Brodeur. Rather than pushing his competition out the door through the media this past season, Schneider had nothing but good things to say about Brodeur, especially when trade rumors exploding leading up to the deadline, according to Randy Miller of NJ.

You know, there are far worse things than having two very good goalies on the same team heading into a playoff stretch here He's been itching to play. I know you guys in the media are just doing your job, but he's had to sit here and answer questions every day about what's going to happen.

Yzerman certainly knows how capable Brodeur is, having played with him on Team Canada and against him in the Stanley Cup Finals in This move may make sense, and the Lightning certainly have the talent and the cup credentials Brodeur may be looking for. It seems that the Washington Capitals have had question marks in goal for the last three or four seasons entering the playoffs. Anything less than the Stanley Cup this season, and Vokoun will be out of a job come summertime. Should the Caps choose to, they could use a decent amount of money to sign a decent goaltender, and they may have the coin to give Brodeur an offer he cannot refuse.

The Caps will have some other offseason decisions to make, but they will still be a Cup contender heading into , and this may be a very intriguing option for Washington and for Brodeur. The Leafs will also have to figure out what to do about unrestricted free agents-to-be centre Mikhail Grabovski and defenseman John Michael-Liles. Odds are they will let Michael-Liles walk or offer him a significant pay cut. They also may give Grabovski a raise and make him a priority, as he is a fine player. The case for Brodeur going to the Leafs may depend on how Toronto fares this season.

If they dent the postseason and show an upward trend, Marty may hear what they have to say. If the Leafs are on the outside looking in, as many predict them to be, Toronto, as a destination, may be less than appealing.

This one is possible but unlikely.






















The Howard Family Kyle, the father and a Joplin fireman, was at work at the fire station during the storm and spent the first two hours after the tornado not knowing if his wife and kids had made it out alive.

He made many stops along the way home, through the rubble, rescuing trapped victims and tending to injured members of the community. Meanwhile Jill and their children, Konnor, Korbin and Kaleb, huddled in a closet. A door landed on top of them, which they used to deflect the debris. This ultimately saved their lives. After the storm, they had no idea if Kyle was alive, but eventually the family, along with older son Keenan, who was out of town at the time, was reunited. Jill sustained minor injuries, but their home was completely destroyed.

Kari is part of Bright Futures, a, organization whose goal it is to increase graduation rates through teaming with businesses and faith-based partners to provide for the needs of students. The parents, along with their children, Uriah, Avery, Cana and Rhoen, ran to the cellar. As they huddled together, they felt the force of the tornado as it ripped apart their house. After making sure his family was safe, Justin immediately started helping others by searching and digging neighbors out of the destruction.

The tornado not only destroyed their home, it also destroyed the entire neighborhood and school Kari worked so hard to help. Without a home, the Nevins are now staying in a rental home 17 miles outside Joplin, as they try to piece back their lives, but they want to come back. She has a passion for helping people find housing, but in a cruel twist, now finds herself homeless. In the tornado, Crystal lost her 9-year-old son, Zach Treadwell.

Upon hearing the sirens, she hustled her kids inside the house and, following her emergency plan, huddled with them in the bathtub. As the home came apart around them, she felt her grip on her children weakening. The storm eventually overpowered her and ripped the kids from her arms. When she next saw Zach, his lifeless body was pinned beneath a utility pole. Stunned, Crystal finds her friend also named Crystal. Learn how your comment data is processed.

The Bring Back EMA Campaign has named this week as its week of action, urging students to 'lobby your MP today', as well as to organise events on campus this week in aid of the revival.

The website lists a dozen colleges who have formulated a plan of action so far. Although the lessons themselves are free, for many students the cost of education can be overwhelming.

Many will need to get the bus, require books and resources, and be given the opportunity to attend trips and extra-curricular activities, all relevant to their course and very expensive over the length of two years. Students were only allowed the grant for weeks in which their school reported that they had per cent attendance, meaning that money was only awarded to students who were committed to their studies.

Conor Ryan, director of research and communications at the Sutton Trust said that "We were critical of the abolition of the EMA, which helped both low and lower middle-income students to cover the costs of transport, books and other essentials while continuing their education in the sixth form or college.

Young people engaging in education is essential to social justice and to our economic future. A much smaller number of young people will get help from this vital allowance. Brian Lightman, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders ASCL , said: "School and college leaders will be relieved that the Government has listened to their concerns about the abolition of the EMA and the harmful effect it would certainly have on efforts to improve social mobility.

However, this new package is still a shadow of its predecessor and it is not even clear if this last minute addition is new money or has been raided from careers guidance budgets. Those who will receive automatic payments represent a tiny percentage of those eligible for EMA. Sally Hunt, general secretary of the University and College Union said: "While I'm pleased that the government has committed to continuing financial support for current EMA recipients and for families on income support, their U-turn doesn't go far enough.






















Since scholars and professors are in jobs where they do intense amounts of research on all sorts of topics, they will often produce annotated bibliographies on the topics they have researched and share those annotated bibliographies with others in the profession.

This helps save other professors and scholars the time and energy of having to research these topics from scratch if they intend to conduct research related to that topic or if they just want to be more informed about that topic. For instance, the following link takes you to the Bedford Bibliography of Research in Online Writing Instruction , in which a variety of contributors documented and annotated over scholarly articles on the topic of online writing instruction published in the last 25 years.

When teachers ask students to write annotated bibliographies, though, they are doing it for different reasons:. To write about any subject matter, a person needs to be informed about it. Then, only after writing whatever it is they can come up with on their own do they eventually add in some stuff from sources they were told to find, merely using those sources to prove or back up what they already wrote. The result of this is that some students write some really weak essays.

They are weak because they begin writing the essay before they even knew very much about their topic. Moreover, they may only look at sources that convey perspectives they already agree with, never bothering to form a fresh perspective by listening to the voices coming from all sides of an issue. In short, the ideas and opinions they express in their essays end up being uninformed and uneducated.

By writing an annotated bibliography, you are taking time to select sources on their own merits, assessing their relevance and credibility on your topic, before you attempt to make use of them.

Moreover, research should be used by students to become more genuinely knowledgeable about the subject matter they research. Not until one is more knowledgeable about their topic should they begin to develop a thesis, a perspective, on that topic to write about.

Thus, writing an annotated bibliography is a way to ensure that you have become sufficiently knowledgeable about your topic before you try to write about it; it is a way to make sure you are writing from a stance of expertise on the subject matter, which is a much more authoritative and persuasive stance from which to write. Other times, students might do their research first, but they never take the time to separate their views and perspectives from those of the sources they are writing about.

They may, then, confuse what ideas and information came from other sources and what came from their own experiences. To learn about your topic : Writing an annotated bibliography is excellent preparation for a research project.

Just collecting sources for a bibliography is useful, but when you have to write annotations for each source, you're forced to read each source more carefully. You begin to read more critically instead of just collecting information. At the professional level, annotated bibliographies allow you to see what has been done in the literature and where your own research or scholarship can fit.

To help you formulate a thesis: Every good research paper is an argument. The purpose of research is to state and support a thesis. So, a very important part of research is developing a thesis that is debatable, interesting, and current. Writing an annotated bibliography can help you gain a good perspective on what is being said about your topic. By reading and responding to a variety of sources on a topic, you'll start to see what the issues are, what people are arguing about, and you'll then be able to develop your own point of view.

To help other researchers : Extensive and scholarly annotated bibliographies are sometimes published. They provide a comprehensive overview of everything important that has been and is being said about that topic. As you can see now, bibliographies and annotations are really a series of organized steps. Use these examples as your guide to creating an annotated bibliography that makes you look like the expert you are! MLA Example.

Is low amniotic fluid dangerous for my baby? What will happen if I'm diagnosed with oligohydramnios? Amniotic fluid fills the sac surrounding your developing baby and plays several important roles: It cushions your baby to protect them from trauma if you take a tumble, for instance. It prevents the umbilical cord from becoming compressed, which would reduce your baby's oxygen supply.

It helps maintain a constant temperature in the womb. It protects against infection. It allows your baby to move around so their muscles and bones develop properly. It helps the digestive and respiratory systems develop as your baby swallows and excretes it and "inhales" and "exhales" it from their lungs.

These problems can be:.

Your provider may want to see you more often. She may want to do ultrasounds weekly or more often to check the amount of amniotic fluid. Sometimes amnioinfusion can help prevent problems in the baby. Amnioinfusion is when the provider puts a saline solution salty water into the uterus through your cervix the opening to the uterus that sits at the top of your vagina.

This treatment can help prevent some problems, such as the umbilical cord being squeezed. If the fluid gets too low or if your baby is having trouble staying healthy, your provider may recommend starting labor early to help prevent problems during labor and birth. However, with regular prenatal care, chances are that your baby will be born healthy. Drinking lots of water may help increase the amount of amniotic fluid. Your provider may recommend less physical activity or going on bed rest.

About 4 out of 4 percent pregnant women have oligohydramnios. It happens in about 12 out of 12 percent women whose pregnancies last about 2 weeks past their due dates. This is because the amount of amniotic fluid usually decreases by that time.

Polyhydramnios , or hydramnios, is when levels of amniotic fluid are too high. Hydramnios happens if there are problems with amniotic fluid leaving the body, or if the body is creating too much of it. Untreated polyhydramnios can cause complications for the pregnant woman and the developing fetus.

These complications can include early labor or congenital disabilities. A doctor will take a medical history to check for any preexisting conditions and carry out a physical examination. A doctor will use ultrasounds and measure amounts of amniotic fluid to check levels.

Once a doctor has checked levels and found any possible causes, they can decide on the best treatment options. If a pregnant woman has low levels of amniotic fluid towards the end of a healthy pregnancy, they may not need any treatment. A doctor may just carry out additional monitoring to keep a closer eye on levels, including more frequent ultrasounds.

If a pregnant woman has a lower level of amniotic fluid than usual, they or their healthcare team can remedy this. Drinking more water is a simple way of increasing amniotic fluid while resting and decreasing physical exercise may also help.

In other cases, an individual may need medical treatment. Interventions can include intravenous fluids to increase hydration, or directly inserting a saline solution into the amniotic sac to increase fluids. If people have any symptoms of low or high amniotic fluid levels, they should arrange a checkup with their healthcare team. Ultrasounds can help to check amniotic fluid levels, and close monitoring and treatment can ensure both the pregnant woman and the fetus stay healthy.

Having too much amniotic fluid during pregnancy can result in an early or difficult delivery. It can also increase the risk to the baby. A doctor may…. Amniotic fluid is the fluid that surrounds and protects an embryo while it is growing in the uterus.






















Finally, the year was a repeat of , , and Even though the calendar years have repeated themselves, there are vast differences in the cultures, trends, politics and technology that were present during these years. The s were much different from the s, and even the s were much different from the s.

The calendars might not have changed, but the lifestyles have — making this an interesting study for historians. If you live in the United States, you use the Gregorian calendar. You use the Gregorian calendar every day, but you might not even realize how it works or that it has some specific rules and patterns.

Before delving into how often the Gregorian calendar repeats itself, it helps to define what this calendar is and how it came to be. Much of the world uses this calendar to specify and record time, specifically days and dates.

Like many other calendars, the Gregorian calendar is based on the movements and positioning of the sun. Each year is divided into 12 months, which are then divided into between 28 and 31 days. However, the Gregorian calendar is not the only calendar, and it's certainly not the first one people have used in history. Before the advent of this calendar type, much of Western civilization adhered to the Julian calendar , which was proposed by Julius Caesar and used by the Roman Empire.

Before that, different groups used the Roman calendar and the Athenian calendar. Notably, nearly every prominent ancient civilization had its own calendar, and these various calendars didn't adhere to the same rules.

One of the reasons why the Gregorian calendar has continued to find usage worldwide despite its creation and implementation is that it is a unifying, easy-to-understand concept. However, some cultures and groups around the world don't recognize the Gregorian calendar or its structure.

Instead, they continue to use the calendars their ancestors created. While patterns are commonly found in other types of date-keeping systems, they don't repeat in the same manner or frequency as they do with the Gregorian calendar.

The Gregorian calendar repeats itself in year cycles. However, some patterns may repeat as few as every six years.

Generally, leap years experience the lengthiest pauses between similar day-week patterns 28 years , while non-leap years may repeat every six or 11 years.

And answer if we starting for leap year is 28 year cycle. But how to correctly prove this hypothesis, using only math equations? Is it possible? Nice equation, but incorrect. The day for any date advances one day per year, two days in leap years. For non-leap years, if we start in then the repeats are in , , and The pattern is 11, 6, 5, 6 starting in Leap years repeat every 28 years.

The last leap year was , the next repeat of the days and dates will be It advances by two each leap year. Since the leap years come in a four year cycle. You need to find a cycle that is a multiple of four years that shifts the day by a multiple of seven days.

They are every four years unless the year is divisible by ; except if it is divisible by ehen it is a leap year. I can directly say 28 years. It's because 7 is a prime number, thus is relatively prime with every natural number smaller than itself. How does this information helps us solve the problem.
